- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1 large egg yolk
- 3 tablespoons cold water
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Add the chilled butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the egg yolk and cold water, mixing until the dough comes together. If needed, add more water, one teaspoon at a time.
- Press the dough into a 9-inch tart pan evenly across the bottom and up the sides. Prick the bottom with a fork.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. In another bowl, mix the mascarpone cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture until well combined.
- Spread the filling evenly into the cooled tart crust. Top with mixed berries, arranging them as desired.
- Chill the tart in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to set the filling.
Notes
- For a gluten-free option, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
- Experiment with different fruits such as peaches or kiwi for a seasonal twist.
